    a. Context and Unique Characteristics

    The Bayh College of Education is one of five academic colleges at Indiana StateUniversity (ISU), located in the Wabash Valley of western central Indiana. ISU wasfounded in 1865 as the Indiana State Normal School, later named Indiana StateTeachers College, then Indiana State College, and in 1965, it was renamed IndianaState University. ISU is a state-supported doctoral/professional university that hasbeen accredited continuously by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) since 1915.ISU is the most diverse public university in the state, and a majority of its studentscome from Indiana and remain in Indiana after graduation. The Bayh College ofEducation's EPP is currently accredited by the National Council for Accreditation ofTeacher Education (NCATE) and is undergoing its first ever Council for theAccreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) review in 2019.

    The Bayh College of Education's EPP is the third largest EPP in the state, using Title IIdata mandated by the state (latest year reported 2015-16). In particular, the BayhCollege of Education houses teacher preparation programs in elementary education,early childhood education and special education in the Department of Teaching andLearning and supports secondary education and all-grade programs housed in theirspecific content departments. It also houses graduate-level P-12 educationaladministration, student affairs, and higher education programs in the Department ofEducational Leadership, graduate programs in counseling and school psychology, andB.S. and M.S. programs in speech-language pathology in the Department ofCommunication Disorder and Counseling, School, and Educational Psychology.Counseling and speech-language pathology programs are accredited by the Councilof Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) and theCouncil on Academic Accreditation--American Speech-Language-Hearing Association(CAA-ASHA), respectively.

    The EPP has been effortful in bringing disparate programs under a more unifiedumbrella, in terms of administrative, curricular, and instructional structures. As partof a Higher Learning Commission's (HLC) Open Pathways initiative, competency-based curricular re-imagination of teacher education programs has been taking placesince 2018, with redesign activities providing the foundational priority. Finally, ourpartnerships with the P-12 schools have encouraged us to begin offering year-longinternships in pre-service teaching preparation. All initial certification programsprovide experiential learning opportunities in school settings, and communityengagement remains an identifying focus of our college and university.

    Please note the Carnegie Classification, Doctoral/Research University as indicated onthis self-study report is incorrect. The correct Carnegie Classification isDoctoral/Professional. At the time this report was prepared, this classification wasnot an option.

  • STAFF ANALYSIS OF INSTITUTIONAL REPORT DATE: December 18, 2013 STAFF: Timothy Gallimore

    REVIEWED BY: Katherine C. Delaney

    INSTITUTION: Indiana State University, Terre Haute, IN EXECUTIVE OFFICER: Daniel J. Bradley, President PREVIOUS COMMISSION ACTION RE: REPORT: A progress report due 12/31/2013 focused on assessment of student learning. ITEMS ADDRESSED IN REPORT: The office of the Commission received Indiana State University’s report on the above topic on 12/2/2013. STAFF ANALYSIS: Indiana State University hosted a comprehensive visit in November 2010. The visiting team noted a concern about assessment at the University:

    Although ISU is engaged in several important assessment initiatives, most of these are quite recent and there is little or no available outcome data. In some cases, such as the general education program (Foundational Studies), even the outcome measures are yet to be developed. Overall, outcomes assessment is very uneven at ISU.

    The team, therefore, recommended this progress report and advised:

    This report should provide an update on the implementation of the assessment program for the Foundational Studies Program (general education) with at least one year of data, as well as an update on assessment activities which reflect at least one year of data collection, analysis and anticipated use of results for all academic programs at both the undergraduate and graduate level.

    The progress report submitted by Indiana State University began with an update on the state of assessment at the University as a whole:

    With support from participation in the HLC’s Academy for Assessment of Student Learning, the university implemented data collection in the Foundational Studies program in 2012-13, thus achieving the required progress for that program. Additionally, of the 136 degree programs offered by Indiana State, 122 (90%) have met the requirement of completing at least one assessment cycle, including anticipated use of the results. Of the 14 programs that have not completed an assessment cycle, 3 will collect and analyze data in 2013-14, 7 are newly approved programs that have assessment plans in place and will collect and analyze data as students progress through the programs, and 4 do not yet have assessment plans in place.

    Assessment of the Foundational Studies Program

  • A revised and renamed general education program, Foundational Studies 2010, was implemented in Fall 2010. At the time of the comprehensive visit, however, the Foundational Studies program had not yet developed assessment measures. Since that time, several initiatives have been implemented to establish an effective assessment program for the Foundational Studies Program, such as:

    • Data collection has included Course Learning Objectives Surveys of student perceptions of the effectiveness of Foundational Studies courses in supporting achievement of the identified learning objectives and administration of the ETS® Proficiency Profile exam, which measures student learning in four areas. The Course Learning Objectives Surveys (CLOS) were piloted in late Spring 2011 for five of the FS categories. In late Spring 2012, surveys were distributed to all students enrolled in FS courses in all categories. The primary function of the CLOS is as a means of formative assessment, but it also functions as an indirect measure of student achievement of the learning objectives. Spring 2012 responses were aggregated by category and descriptive statistics were generated by the Assessment Subcommittee. The results suggest that, overall, student perceptions of both mastery of category objectives and gains in mastery were positive, with the lowest average score for all questions in all categories being greater than 3.5 (“neither agree or disagree” = 3). Half of the categories (7 of 14) had averages for at least half of the survey questions above 4.0 (= “agree”). The ETS® Proficiency Profile allows institutions to evaluate learning gains between entering and exiting students, as well as to compare institutional results to national benchmarks.

    Following a small pilot implementation in 2010, Indiana State administered the ETS® Proficiency Profile to a sample of entering students (N=230) in Fall 2012 and to a sample of exiting students (N=232) in Spring 2013. While the results of the exam are encouraging, indicating statistically significant gains (p

  • The Office of Assessment and Accreditation is to support and enhance academic and non-academic assessment, as well as other activities related to continued improvement initiatives and efforts to enhance institutional performance and student learning outcomes. The progress report provided examples of how assessment findings have been used to enhance program effectiveness. Examples were provided from each college of the use of assessment results to inform program improvement. Continuous Improvement of Assessment at Indiana State University Several points were made to demonstrate the continued involvement of Indiana State in the assessment initiatives:

    • Indiana State’s participation in the Academy for Assessment of Student Learning, which extends through 2015, will not only serve to maintain attention on and support assessment of the Foundational Studies learning objectives, but also will help to strengthen assessment of degree programs and broaden and deepen the culture of assessment at Indiana State.

    • In Fall 2013, the university established the Faculty Center for Teaching Excellence. The Assessment and Accreditation Coordinator will collaborate with the Center’s director to provide professional development opportunities focused on identifying student learning outcomes, supporting student achievement of the outcomes, and enhancing course-level and program-level assessment of student achievement.

    • The Extended Learning office has implemented several recent initiatives designed to strengthen the online learning experience and support assessment efforts.

    • Since 2002, Indiana State has administered the NSSE, and more recently, the BCSSE and the FSSE, on a two- or three-year rotation. Previously, the data gathered through these surveys has not been widely shared or used to inform improvements to enhance student success. While not measures of student learning, the results of these surveys, particularly when used in conjunction with direct assessment, can guide improvements in both academic and cocurricular programming to support student engagement and success.

    The progress report then provided evidence of the initiatives taken in seven of the colleges of the University to conduct meaningful assessment and to improve student learning based on the assessment data. Staff comment: It is clear from the excellent progress report submitted by Indiana State that the University has given focused attention and resources to assessment since the 2010 comprehensive visit. The progress the University has made is very clear and the evidence of the progress is clearly set forward in the progress report. Indiana State has clearly responded notably and completely to the concerns of the 2010 comprehensive visit team related to assessment. The University is commended for such significant progress. STAFF ACTION: Accept the report on assessment of student learning. No further reports are required. The institution’s next reaffirmation of accreditation is scheduled for 2020 – 2021.

  • 1.1 Understanding of InTASC Standards ii. Analysis report. Write a narrative that delineates the connection between the evidence and the Standard.

    Standard 1.1 Understanding of the 10 InTASC Standards: Candidates' understanding of the ten InTASC standards are assessed using multiplemeasures at multiple progression points throughout the candidates' program. ThisEPP uses a combination of EPP created assessments and the Indiana Licensure examas evidence of content and pedagogical knowledge that impacts P-12 studentlearning. A thorough review and analysis of the evidence highlights several strengthsas well as areas for growth and change.

    The EPP has identified four key assessments; Professional Disposition, Teacher WorkSample, Unit Report, and the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching which arestrategically placed throughout the candidates' program to monitor candidateprogression. Evidence 5.1.1 - QAS System, pages 20-21, outlines which assessmentsare administered at each progression level. The strategic placement of these keyassessments allows program faculty an opportunity to monitor progression andprovide early intervention as necessary.

    First, the Professional Disposition assesses the Learner and Learning domain. Thisassessment is administered at several progression points during the candidates'program. (Evidence 1.1.1 - Key Assessment #1 Professional Disposition)

    Second, the Unit Report (secondary candidates) and the Teacher Work Sample(Elementary and Special Education candidates) correspond to all four domains of theInTASC standards. Successful completion, ratings of Meets or Exceeds, on theTeacher Work Sample and Unit Report demonstrate proficiency on each of theInTASC standards (Evidence 1.1.4 - Key Assessment #4 - Unit Report and 1.1.2 -Key Assessment #2 - Teacher Work Sample). Data presented for the Unit Report arefor all secondary candidates combined. Disaggregated data by content area can befound in evidence 1.1.4.

    Third, the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching is aligned with all ten InTASCstandards and the individual components. This assessment is administered at the endof the student teaching placement. Overall ratings of Meets or Exceeds Expectationson the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching demonstrate a candidate has anunderstanding of the 10 InTASC standards. (Evidence 1.1.3 Key Assessment #3 -Final Evaluation of Student Teaching)

    The final assessment of the candidates' understanding of the InTASC standards is thelicensure test. (Evidence 1.1.5 - Key Assessment #5 - Licensure Test Evidence, DataTable 2)

    I. Learner and Learning On the Teacher Work Sample, 6 of 18 elements correspond to Learner and Learning.Three cycles of data are presented: Fall 2017 n=18, Spring 2018 n=57, and Fall2018 n=25. Across the six elements, 100% of candidates Met or Exceededexpectations in Fall 2017 and 93%-100% in Spring 2018. In Fall 2018 as many as48% of candidates were rated at the Developing level. 52%-76% of candidates Metor Exceeded Expectations on this domain, with a relatively low percentage of

    (Confidential) Page 8

  • candidates scoring at the Exceeds level (0%-12%). This trend in scoring for Fall 2018is not evident on the other assessments assessing this domain.

    On the Unit Report 6 of 16 elements correspond to Learner and Learning. Threecycles of data were reported: Fall 2017 n=51, Spring 2018 n=56, Fall 2018 n=68.For all three cycles and for all elements, the range of candidates scoring at the Meetsor Exceeds Expectations was 96%-100%. Two candidates scored at the Does NotMeet Expectations level. One student switched majors to a non-education degree andone candidate resubmitted the Unit Report during the student teaching semester.

    On the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching elements 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, 3c, 3dcorrespond to Learner and Learning. Three cycles of data are reported. 100% ofcandidates in elementary education and special education were rated at the Meets orExceeds Expectations Level on all elements pertaining to Learner and Learning. Onesecondary education candidate was rated at Does Not Meet Expectations on oneelement in Spring 2018. The remaining 98% of secondary candidates scored at theMeets or Exceeds Expectations level.

    Overall, for the Learner and Learning Domain, across all key assessments, all threecycles of data, and across all three initial programs, 96% of candidates were rated atthe required level of proficiency on this domain. There was one exception on one keyassessment, the Teacher Work Sample, for elementary candidates in the Fall 2018where there was a high percentage of candidates who did not meet the requiredproficiency level as mentioned above.

    II. Content and Pedagogical Knowledge On the Teacher Work Sample, 4 of 18 elements correspond to Content andPedagogical Knowledge. Three cycles of data are presented: Fall 2017 n=18, Spring2018 n=57, and Fall 2018 n=25. Across the four elements, 94% - 100% ofcandidates Met or Exceeded expectations in Fall 2017 with a small percentage(5.6%) of candidates rated at the Emerging level on one element. 93%-100%candidates were rated at the Meets or Exceeds level in Spring 2018 with 2-5% ofcandidates falling below the threshold on one or more elements. In Fall 2018, asmany as 48% of candidates were rated at the Developing level. There was a lowpercentage (4%) of candidates who were rated at the Exceeds Expectations level inFall 2018. Again, this trend in scoring for Fall 2018 is not evident on the otherassessments assessing this domain.

    On the Unit Report, 3 of 16 elements correspond to Content and PedagogicalKnowledge. Three cycles of data were reported: Fall 2017 n=51, Spring 2018 n=56,Fall 2018 n=68. For all three cycles and for all elements in this domain, the range ofcandidates scoring at the Meets or Exceeds Expectations was 98%-100%. Twocandidates scored at the Does Not Meet Expectations level. One student switchedmajors to a non-education degree and one candidate resubmitted the Unit Reportduring the student teaching semester.

    On the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching, elements 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 5a, 5b, 5ccorrespond to Content and Pedagogical Knowledge. 100% of candidates inelementary education and special education were rated at the Meets or Exceeds

  • Expectations Level on all element. One secondary education candidate was rated atDoes Not meet Expectations on one element. There was a significant percentage ofcandidates who received a No Basis for Judgment rating on 4d: Accesses localresources to evaluate content knowledge in their primary language. This trend wasevident across all three programs. Further exploration into this trend may benecessary to evaluate whether more direction should be provided to raters or ifcandidates do not have adequate opportunity to demonstrate this elementeffectively.

    Overall, for the Content and Pedagogical domain, across all key assessments, allthree cycles of data, and across all three initial programs, 93% of candidates wererated at the required level of proficiency on this domain. There was one exception onthe Teacher Work Sample, for elementary candidates in the Fall 2018 where therewas a high percentage of candidates who did not meet the required proficiency level.

    III. Instructional Practice On the Teacher Work Sample, 4 of 18 elements correspond to Instructional Practice.Three cycles of data are presented: Fall 2017 n=18, Spring 2018 n=57, and Fall2018 n=25. Across the four elements, 100% of candidates Met or Exceededexpectations in Fall 2017. 95%-100% candidates were rated at the Meets or Exceedslevel in Spring 2018 with 2-5% of candidates falling below the threshold on one ormore elements. In Fall 2018, 24-48% of candidates were rated at the Developinglevel on one or more elements. There was a low percentage (4-8%) of candidateswho met the Exceeds Expectations level in Fall 2018. Again, this trend in scoring forFall 2018 is not evident on the other assessments assessing this domain.

    On the Unit Report, 4 of 16 elements correspond to Instructional Practice. Threecycles of data were reported: Fall 2017 n=51, Spring 2018 n=56, Fall 2018 n=68.For all three cycles and for all elements, the range of candidates scoring at the Meetsor Exceeds Expectations was 96%-100%. Two candidates scored at the Does NotMeet Expectations level. One student switched majors to a non-education degree andone candidate resubmitted the Unit Report during the student teaching semester.

    On the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching, elements 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7a, 7b, 7c, 8a,8b, 8c, 8d correspond to Instructional Practice. 100% of candidates in elementaryeducation and special education scored at the Meets or Exceeds Expectations level.For elementary education, there was a high percentage, 20%-47% of candidateswho were rated at the No Basis for Judgment on 8b: Accesses family and CommunityResources. This is an area for continued exploration to determine why there is a highpercentage of candidates rated as No Basis for Judgment. For secondary candidates,there was one candidate in Spring 2018 who scored at the Does Not MeetExpectations Level. The remaining 98% of secondary candidates scored at the Meetsor Exceeds Expectations level.

    Overall, for the Instructional Practice domain, across all key assessments, all threecycles of data, and across all three initial programs, 95% of candidates were rated atthe required level of proficiency on this domain with one exception on the TeacherWork Sample as noted in previous domains.

  • IV. Professional Responsibility InTASC 9 and 10 On the Professional Disposition, 2 of the 10 elements (Integrity and Collegiality)correspond to the Professional Responsibility domain. The professional dispositionassessment is administered at three points in the candidates' program, datapresented are for disposition during coursework (midpoint) and disposition duringstudent teaching (final). Midpoint professional disposition data are reported for threecycles, Fall 2017 n=136, Spring 2018 n=142, and Fall 2018 n=144. Data presentedare for all EPP candidates. Candidates are expected to be at the Proficient level at themidpoint assessment. Less than 65% of candidates scored at the Proficient level;20%-44% Fall 2017, 29%-65% in Spring 2018, and 55% in Fall 2018.

    Professional disposition data during student teaching are reported for three cycles:Fall 2017 n=49, Spring 2018 n=147, and Fall 2018 n=41. Data presented are for allEPP candidates. Candidates are expected to be at the Proficient level. For all threecycles, 98% of candidates were rated at the Proficient level.

    On the Teacher Work Sample, 4 of 18 elements correspond to ProfessionalResponsibility. Three cycles of data are presented: Fall 2017 n=18, Spring 2018n=57, and Fall 2018 n=25. Across the four elements, 100% of candidates Met orExceeded expectations in Fall 2017 and 95% of candidates in Spring 2018 with 2-5%of candidates falling below the threshold on one or more elements. In Fall 2018 asmany as 28% of candidates were rated at the Developing level. There was a lowpercentage (8%) of candidates who met the Exceeds Expectations level in Fall 2018.Again, this trend in scoring for Fall 2018 is not evident on the other assessmentsassessing this domain.

    On the Unit Report, 3 of 16 elements correspond to Professional Responsibility. Threecycles of data were reported: Fall 2017 n=51, Spring 2018 n=56, Fall 2018 n=68.For all three cycles and for all elements, the range of candidates scoring at the Meetsor Exceeds Expectations was 98%-100%. Two candidates scored at the Does NotMeet Expectations level. One candidate switched majors to a non-education degreeand one candidate resubmitted the Unit Report during the student teachingsemester.

    On the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching, elements 9a, 9b, 9c, 10a, 10b, 10c, 10dcorrespond to Professional Responsibility. 100% of candidates in elementaryeducation and special education scored at the Meets or Exceeds Expectations level.There was a high percentage, 28%-43% of elementary candidates and 44%-47% ofsecondary candidates who were rated at the No Basis for Judgment on 10c: BuildsConnections with Community Resources. This is an area for continued exploration todetermine why there is a high percentage of candidates rated as No Basis forJudgment. For secondary candidates there was one candidate in Spring 2018 whoscored at the Does Not Meet Expectations Level. All other secondary candidates,98% scored at the Meets or Exceeds Expectations level.

    Overall, for the Professional Responsibility domain, across all key assessments, allthree cycles of data, and across all three initial programs, at least 98% of candidateswere rated at the required level of proficiency on this domain with one exception onthe Teacher Work Sample as noted in previous domains. Additionally, this is the only

    (Confidential) Page 11

  • domain in which the Professional Disposition is aligned. The data show significantimprovements from the midpoint to the final disposition. At the midpoint assessment,there was a significant percentage of candidates who were rated at the Adequate orBelow Expectations level; 45% in Fall 2017, 71% in Spring 2018, and 1% in Fall2018. By the final administration of this assessment during student teaching, thepercentage of candidates at the Adequate level on these two elements decreaseddrastically to less than 2% in Spring 2018.

    Overall Analysis and Future Directions:As a whole, the data demonstrate mastery of the InTASC standards across allassessments at different points in the candidates program. However, data did show asignificant decline in scores on the Teacher Work Sample for the Fall 2018 semester.On 15 of the 18 components assessing the InTASC standards on the Teacher WorkSample, 12%-48% of the candidates were assessed at the Developing level. Thistrend was not evident in the Fall 2018 on the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching.Several factors could contribute to this anomaly: errors in entering scores in theassessment system or differences in faculty teaching the course that particularsemester. Additionally, the Teacher Work Sample was revised for Spring 2018 to afour- level rubric. Fall 2018 may have been the first time that faculty used the four-level rubric which may have impacted the scoring. Consideration should be given toexploring why there was a decline in candidates' scores on the Teacher Work Samplein Fall 2018 and measures should be put in place to minimize the vast difference inthe Spring cycle. This may require additional rater training on the assessment orrevising the indicators to be more clear.

    After a thorough review of the evidence for standard 1.1, the majority of keyassessments occur in the final semester of the candidates' program. Adding anadditional key assessment earlier on the candidate's progression may be beneficial toassist faculty with improved monitoring and allow candidates to have earlier feedbackon their performance. Additionally, informal observations are conducted during thestudent teaching experience, however; they are not considered key assessments.Candidates may benefit from adding one or more of these observations early on inthe program to help candidates self-monitor their progression. Consideration shouldbe given to adding the informal observations of student teaching as a formal keyassessment.

    On the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching, there was a high percentage ofcandidates who were rated at the No Basis for Judgment on elements that pertainedto community involvement. Further exploration is necessary to determine if this isdue to unclear indicators of what constitutes community involvement or if ourcandidates are lacking opportunities during their student teaching experiences todemonstrate this concept.

    An evaluation of student teaching occurs during the TOTAL, Teachers of TomorrowAdvancing Learning, semester for elementary education and special educationcandidates and during early field experience for secondary candidates. Currently thisevaluation is completed on the 'Final Evaluation of Student Teaching Form'. It may bebeneficial to rename this point of administration to differentiate between early fieldexperience/TOTAL internship and the true cumulative "Final" Evaluation of Student

  • Teaching.

    Standard 1.2 Understanding of the Teaching Profession:Candidates are assessed on their understanding of the profession through their useof research to guide planning and teaching, the use of assessments, and their abilityto monitor P-12 learner growth and then use the data to improve instruction. Theseareas are assessed at multiple points using multiple measures throughout thecandidates' program.

    Summary of Evidence:First, in Assignment 3 of the Teacher Work Sample elementary education candidatesdesign a lesson, administer a pre-test, use the data from the pre-test to informchanges and administer a post-test to measure their impact on student learning. InAssignment 4, candidates provide an analysis of the pre and post-test datadocumenting how the data was used to impact student learning. (Evidence 1.1.2 -Key Assessment #2 - Teacher Work Sample). Secondary education candidatescomplete a similar assignment and are assessed on this on criterion 5 and 7 on theUnit Report. (Evidence 1.1.4 - Key Assessment #4 - Unit Report)

    Second, all candidates' use of research and evidence to measure their P-12 students'progress and their professional practice is assessed by the host teacher anduniversity supervisor during their student teaching experience using the FinalEvaluation of Student Teaching form. (Evidence 1.1.3 Key Assessment #3 -Evaluation of Student Teaching)

    1.2 Analysis and Interpretation:On the element assessing pre and post-test analysis within the Teacher WorkSample, 100% of elementary education candidates scored at the Meets or Exceedslevel in Fall 2017, 96.5% in Spring 2018, and 88% in Fall 2018. The decline in thepercentage of candidates who met or exceeded expectations in Fall 2018 may be aresult of several factors; there was a recent revision to the rubric from a three- pointto a four- point and the faculty teaching the course in Fall 2018 may not have usedthe revised rubric previously. An additional measure of P-12 student impact is thepre-test and post-test scores from the Teacher Work Sample (Evidence 1.1.2 pg.21). In Fall 2018, 23 of the 26 elementary education candidates showedimprovements in their class test averages from the pre-test to the post-test and 20out of 23 in Spring 2018. Between the two cycles, 6 candidates showed no changeon their class average test scores from the pre-test to the post-test. It is difficult todetermine if the lack of change in class test scores for those six candidates is a resultof a) an error in the inputting of data in the spreadsheet, b) an error running thedata, c) P-12 students not being present for both the pre-test and post-test, or d)difficulties in the candidates instruction/planning between the pre-test and the post-test.

    On the element "Assessment of Learning" within the Unit Report, 100% of secondaryeducation candidates in the Fall 2017 met or exceeded expectations, 96% in Spring2018, and 99% in Fall 2018. An additional measure of P-12 student impact is thepre-test and post-test scores from the Unit Report (Evidence 1.1.4 pg. 56-57). 80 of

  • the 81 secondary candidates showed improved class average test scores from thepre-test to the post-test.

    The data provide substantial evidence that our candidates have strengths at selectingand/or designing assessments that provide evidence of student learning.Furthermore, the data support that our candidates have strengths using assessmentsas research tools to understand and respond to their students' learning needs suchthat they have a positive impact on student learning.

    1.2 Future Use:Further exploration regarding the decline in candidates' performance on the TeacherWork Sample in Fall 2018 is warranted as several factors may have attributed to thelower scores during that one cycle of data. While candidates did not meet theminimum proficiency level on the Teacher Work Sample, those candidatessuccessfully completed the capstone course and performed at or above the minimumproficiency level on the Final Evaluation of Student Teaching. One question movingforward is do we as an EPP, adequately identify and put interventions in place forthose candidates who do not meet the proficiency level?
